I always do the window down full arm wave whenever I see another Vette. It's comical how we count as we go about our daily lives.
My days are defined in great days and great Vette days.

Friday 11 Vettes - 10 waves - 8 females 3 men 8 C-5's 1 shark, 1 C4 and 1 C6 that couldnt have given me a dirtier look

I"d still say it was a great Vette day

There's one lady in town with a red Vette like mine that simply refuses to wave back. She drives by with both hands firmly planted in the 10 o'clock-2 o'clock positions and stares straight ahead. Oh well...

All the other lady Vette drivers wave back though...

Some have a clue, some don't.

Haven't you guys read rule 13: subpart, 4a of "The Wave"? I quote: "Should the driver of said Corvette be female an "at will" exemption shell exist. Due to the highly unpredictable behavior of said driver of the first part (male) being waved to by the corvette driver of the second part (female), no female shall be subjected to the possible consequences of such wave and is therefore exempt on a discretionary basis."

I wave at every Vette I see....and I have to agree with you on the fact that MOST women don't wave (but not ALL of us) ..... The ones I've run across don't even wave at other women!!!

i have a feeling that when the mrs has our vette out (and i encourage her to take it out shopping), she is trying hard as h*ll not to crash the car when she's driving----hence, she'd be in a we-don't-wave-mode. bub

Not like I care whether or not a woman waves to me (I am very happily married), but has anyone else noticed this?

What gives?

Jeez.
I can say for sure if it would have been my wife passing by you she would have waved. She waves to other vettes on the other side of the freeway when I know they couldn't possibly see her inside her car. She's really **** about THE WAVE!

My wife loves to wave, even if I am driving. If I don't see a vette, she will smack me in the arm and tell me to wave!

They wave in Florida!! A few months back had a female in a white C5, talking on her cell phone, almost break her arm in an effort to wave her free hand!!

...... I was impressed! Guess she didn't want to get reported on the forum!!

Run into the same thing. The only time a woman has waved back was from a woman driving a C3. The C5's around here are usually driven by women my age or a few years older and get that same weird look like he said. Just trying to be curtious...
